Red Cabbage Coleslaw – Vegan Friendly

Red Cabbage Coleslaw - Plant-based Vegan RecipeI love coleslaw, so when we went plant-based vegan, I knew we’d have to find a good vegan mayo substitute so I could make some.  This vegan-friendly Red Cabbage Coleslaw is what I came up with.  I did get some inspiration from some other recipes, though, including:

  • Genius Kitchen’s Super Simple Sugar Free Coleslaw
  • Food Network’s Robert Irvine’s Coleslaw Recipe
  • Jen Reviews Coleslaw Salad Recipe(s)

The problem I have with most coleslaw is the added sugar.  For me, that is just not okay.  It’s not a health thing either, I just don’t like sweet coleslaw. This Red Cabbage Coleslaw has no added sugar. The carrots add the perfect sweetness. And, I use all purple cabbage. Not only for the amazing color, but also because the darker the vegetable, the higher the antioxidants.  Along with the mayo and vinegar dressing, this combo makes a great side for a burger or sandwich.

Head on over to our Living the Middle YouTube Channel, or to the Plant-Based Grilling: Portobello Mushroom Burgers, Coleslaw & Grilled Veggies  post to see this recipe and others in Action.

If you try the recipe, or have a fav of your own, please share with us in the comments, we’d love to hear from you!

Happy Living,

Kelly (& Steffan)

I love coleslaw, but not when it's too sweet. This vegan-friendly Red Cabbage Coleslaw has no added sweetness--just the carrots, that blend with the dressing for a perfect side-dish.
